The Click by AJR Lyric Prompts

"Are these my best years yet?"

"Was looking forward to being important (but I'm not important yet)."

"If you put this scene on a movie screen, is it called a happy end?"

"If the work gets me where I'm supposed to be, will I know I've made it, then?"

"(These things take time), Mom and Dad, they have a good life, but what am I gonna do with mine?"

"Temptations of trouble on my tongue (troubles yet to come)."

"I'm weak, and what's wrong with that?"

"I love it when I fall for that."

"My habits, they hold me like a grudge."

"I'm not where I'm supposed to be."

"I hope that you're missing me."

"Growing up, it made me numb (and I wanna feel something, again)."

"But soon, we forget to smile at anything else."

"My favorite color is you."

"You keep me young, and that's how I wanna be."

"When did all my friends become so loud?"

"We act like reality shows, probably 'cause reality blows."

"We're caught up in problems."

"We break up with lovers and friends, make love to the rumors, instead."

"Maybe we're addicted to it all."

"I hold you closer than I ever knew I could do."

"I thought I'd recognize when love was true."

"Am I ready for love? (Or maybe just a best friend?)"

"You say I turned out fine."

"I think I'm still turning out."

"In my mind, i thought that birds would sing and sparks would fly, but it's just quiet."

"Am I cruel, or am I ignorant, or was I fooled?"

"Was I fooled by the stories I knew?"

"Who can I turn to, now?"

"I'm a little kid, and so are you."

"Don't you go and grow up before I do."

"I'm a little kid with so much doubt."

"Do you wanna be there, to see how I turn out?"

"Don't wanna get paranoid."

"I'm just high off the music."

"Someone told me to be selfless (but we are helpless, without attention)."

"Does my voice get to your headphones?"

"You start thinkin' 'bout the clock ticks, you get nervous, you start stressin'."

"Listen to my aching heart."

"We are human, after all (and we don't stay for long)."

"Drove so fast, my brain got buzzed."

"Met so many faces that will probably forget me."

"You've never heard of me, or the weird shit I do and say."

"Nobody knows my quirks."

"it hit my heart so hard, I'd hardly speak."

"But I could find some peace and privacy."

"Who are we, to wonder where we're going?"

"Who am I, to tell me who I am?"

"If I need a pick-me-up, would you come and pick me up?"

"Come hang out, 'cause you're out of your mind."

"You're working so damn hard, you forgot what you like."

"I can't complain, no, I won't be mourning."

"All of my life, I have been starving (not for a dinner with friends, more of a starving artist)."

"Should I follow the click in my ear?"

"Should I hang my head low? Should I bite my tongue?"

"Used to hang my head low."

"All my role models are on TV for the wrong reasons."

"I will unravel if you rip away my best pieces."

"Would've never come so far, without someone there to start it."

"I truly love the art, when I kinda hate the artist."

"You used to be so special to me, now you've taken it."

"Look at this mess, should I forget what you gave to me?"

"My likeness isn't me, my likeness isn't at all."

"Is it normal to stand here, and wish that I was back at home?"

"Is it normal to tell her I can't be normal, anymore?"

"I've got lots of problems, well, good thing nobody knows."

"Wouldn't it be nice for someone to miss ya?"

"Funny how all the things that you used to like, now they depress ya."

"If somebody told me I'd die at forty, I wouldn't've spent my time in bed."

"I should've just grown up, instead."

"How long have I been out of town?"

"How different life would be, right now..."

"I smile when I cry, to hide what I felt."

"I'm doing fine, speak for yourself."

"I should've just asked for help."

"We're old as shit, whatever."

"If you've got friends, don't let 'em leave."

"Not one of them were there to see."

"You don't have to try so hard, you know."

"I spent my whole life, tryna be so liked; that only made them hate me more."

"Did I make you proud? Did I screw this up?"

"Sing with me loud, it's all that I've got."

"You gotta get better, you're all that I've got."

"Don't take forever, you're not here, for long."

"I think it's too late to figure this out."

"If I could be me, I would've been it, by now."

"It looks like our time is running out."

"So if this is me, then I'll do my best."

"I'll take all the shit, so you never have to."
